I Looked Away

She took my hand

And tried to make me understand

That she would always be there

But I looked away

And she ran away from me today

I'm such a lonely man

It came as no surprise to me

That she'd leave me in misery

It seemed like only yesterday

She made a vow that she'd never walk away

She took my hand

And tried to make me understand

That she would always be there

But I looked away

And she ran away from me today

I'm such a lonely man

And if it seemed a sin

To love another man's woman, baby

I guess I'll keep on sinning

Loving her, Lord, till my very last day

But I looked away

And she ran away from me today

I'm such a lonely man
